OPERATION

The state-of-the-art, Doorbell Signaler will alert you when
someone comes to visit. The Doorbell Signaler, Model DB200 is
the only doorbell and intercom signaler that requires no wires and
can be installed in seconds. DB200 will alert you that someone is
at your door by flashing a light plugged into the base unit or any
Sonic Alert receiver anywhere in your home.
The DB200 is designed to work with homes with or without an
existing doorbell or chime and all existing buzzer and intercom
systems.

Other features include selectable number of flashes (5 or 10),
different flash code for front door, rear door, or intercom.
Additional sensors sold separately for 2nd door or source. There is
also a built-in chime for hearing members of the family (can be
turned off by using the switch on the right side of the DB200).
The DB200 receives an RF radio signal from the DB200 sensor,
and flashes the light plugged into the built-in outlet of the DB200.
Use a 300 watt or less incandescent lamp only. The DB200 can
send a signal to all Sonic Alert remote receivers. Note: Must be

used only with Sonic Alert receivers for proper operation,

SIGNALER DB SENSOR

INSTALLATION

To install the DB200, follow the diagrams and instructions on
the following page that match the type of installation you
need for your home. If the installation follows diagrams 1-4,
a 9 volt alkaline battery is required in the DB sensor.

Please check the switches on your DB200 Sensor before
installing. Do not change switches 1-6 these are pre set.
It’s very important that the switch settings on both units
match . See figure 1.1 on back side for settings.

DB Sensor settings, smaller unit: 1 thru 6 dip switches are
set at the factory and only need to be changed if your
neighbor has a DB200 or DB100. The 8 dip switches should
be set as follows:

a) 1 thru 3 dip switches are set in the ON position and

4 thru 6 are set in the OFF position. If you need to
change the dip switch settings to avoid interference
with your neighbors make sure you change both the
DB200 Signaler to match the DB Sensor.

b) The 8th switch determines the number of flashes

when someone is at your door. In the ON position
your until will flash 5 times and in the OFF position
your unit will flash 10 times. This feature is
wonderful when you have an extra sensor for the
back door. One sensor would be set in the ON
position and the other would be set in the OFF
position.

c) The 7th switch is for use when using 2 sensors, this

switch determines the settings for front or back door.
If using for one door only set this switch in the ON
position. At this setting your unit will flash at a fast
rate and will make a ding/dong sound. If using 2
sensors one for the front door and one for the back
door the setting for the 2nd sensor would be in the
OFF position. In this position the front door will
flash at a different flash rate than the back door. In
the OFF position your back door sensor will flash at
a slow rate with a dong/dong sound.

Function settings:

The function switch on the back of DB sensor (smaller unit)
should be set depending on which installation application you
need. See diagram on back.

switches 1-6. The factory setting is 1 thru 3 ON and 4 thru
6 OFF. The 7th and 8th switches are not active switches and
it will not matter if they are set to ON or OFF, unless your
using 2 sensors one for the front and one for the back door.
If you need to change the dip switch settings to avoid
interference with your neighbors, make sure both units
